Serect opinions for my secret friends (you know who you are)

Once again this is for the insider so for the rest of you I apologize cause sometimes names are better left unsaid. Well we continue to have turmoil and unrest at Big Red. We are losing a newbie only to be replaced by another newbie, if done correctly then things like this could work. We know who are best suited for the job, sometimes those most are also the most reluctant to take it because of their excellence in other places. They fear to lose that connection. It’s those that truly want to help not just the client’s bit fellow staff members. Those with people skill(certainly not me, I have the decision making ability for being in charge but certainly not the political correctness I am too blunt and I do not sometimes play well with others but hey that’s another story) What we have to fear as usual is people who want to be in charge cause they like the power and authority , that to me is an unhealthy situation is well known that where we work seldom gets things rights and I fear that if they make the wrong choice on this, some major damage can be done. People who are power hungry should not be in power, but people who are very even keeled and have the best interest of those that work for them as those that are clients are always the best choices. Those that never spout off about how much they help the client, but just do because they want and feel that is enough, that is the type of new leadership we need. We are at a major crossroad, professionally many of us have (for better or worse) decided that this is our final stop and many of us really try from the bottom of our hearts and heads, for that I am proud. We know that some of us are natural leaders, who people respect and admire who play nice with all and get along with all client and staff alike, hesitance should be considered a virtue here but please do not let that hold you back, there are many of us who believe in you. You know you are capable and sometimes things come up a little sooner than expected go with it and enjoy the ride, you will have many around to support you. If the obviously wrong choice is made (at least from many people’s stand point) then we could be in major trouble, we have to ask or somebody should; is this the right person for this opportunity. We work in a place that relies on a delicate balance and one of the major factors of that balance is trustworthiness and truthfulness and I believe that the person who exhibits those qualities more should be the obvious choice. Now I have very strong feelings because I love what I do and only want the best for me and my coworkers and bosses. We all play roles what are we looking for? By the way I know the role I play and I am fine with it I believe that being underestimated or misunderstood is fine I want to relate to my clients rather then some of my comrades. Just remember what Wooderson said “We get older they stay the same. Meaning we have to stay in touch with our clients and their lives and emotions. Good luck
